[9fans] Aki's drawterm-fb, THX/THNX img

2011-11-16 Thread Sergey Kish
Hello 9vx is great, but it requires X11. And X11 badly impact performance of my netbook. It's strange. With recent linux kernel `mplayer -vo fbdev` able to play HD video from VT. Not bad I think. So I want to get rid of X11. Run 9vx headless and drawterm to it. Luckily there is Aki's drawterm-fb.

x11 is not that big of an impact on a netbook. I suspect your real problem is some horrible X desktop a la Gnome. Get something like FLWM (very light weight) or Rio and run 9vx in that environment. I've done that and it's very fast. The drawterm-fb had issues and I don't recommend you spending a

Nope. I run wmii. There is a problem on that particular hardware (GMA 500). Pain for a three years. And now finally with reinvented driver it's amazing fast. But X plays badly. I'm sure I can't fix X. Only wait. On Wed, Nov 16, 2011 at 5:23 PM, ron minnich wrote: > x11 is not that big of an imp

[9fans] 6a bug

2011-11-16 Thread erik quanstrom
i plan to look at this when i get home, but it appears that 6a doesn't like big numbers. demo script follows - erik --- ; cat >a.s <<'EOF' #define KZERO (0xff00ull) TEXT bignumber(SB), 1, $0 ADDQ$KZERO, AX RET EOF ; cat >ac.c< #include extern uvlong bignum

AX is the wrong register. REGARG is BP. actually, it's "RARG" in 6a, in case it changes, although that seems less likely now. On 16 November 2011 14:25, erik quanstrom wrote: > i plan to look at this when i get home, but it appears that 6a > doesn't like big numbers.  demo script follows > > - er
